I spent around 15 minutes trying to figure this out before I finally knew that both options gave me the same conclusion. I believe clicking on a character gives you the campaign name, and selecting a mission on the map gives you the actual mission’s name, but I didn’t know this. This isn’t helped by the fact that you’re given different titles for each campaign depending on which method you choose. This completely confused me initially, as I thought there was a difference between the map and clicking each character individually, but as far as I can tell, there isn’t. You can click on each council member, or click on the map lying on the council table and choose your campaign from there. The issue lies in the fact that you have two ways of choosing your campaigns. When I say that the campaign menu is vague and confusing, you may be scratching your head as to how a menu could be confusing. From what I can gather, the Empress of Ashan (the world in which our game takes place) has been assassinated, and a war for succession is under way. There’s very little explanation for what’s going on in the game’s opening cutscene or the campaign’s opening cutscene. The campaigns themselves are decently entertaining, but I was a bit disappointed with the plot setup and initial campaign menu (as odd as that sounds), as they’re both incredibly vague. The campaign(s) in Heroes VII are what I was most looking forward to, since they weren’t available in the beta. Where the sixth title was boring, uninspired, and loaded with bugs, Heroes VII is full of life, content, and brings back the imaginative feeling and identity of the older games, which I feel was partially lost with the previous two titles. As previously stated in my preview of the game’s beta, I honestly think that Might And Magic: Heroes VII is a worthy successor to the likes of Heroes V and possibly even the original trilogy (though, those games are sacred). Four years after a rather disappointing attempt at a reboot to the Heroes Of Might And Magic (Now, annoyingly, known as Might And Magic: Heroes) series, Ubisoft and Limbic Entertainment have come back with the seventh addition to the cult turn-based strategy\RPG franchise.
